Man on a wire, hurry
Higher and higher
Sway with the gentle breeze
The rush that leaves that tale
Of a certain spell
Is it for real?
I keep hearing whispers in the distance
It's cold up here but it's clear

Whisper a lot to set me free
Mighty river's gonna carry me
Ow I come and as I roll
Mighty river's gonna carry me home

This view from up high is vertical
Wondering I, oh, I
Could ever get to stop this bleeding heart
The spark of all, tell me it's real
Cause I need a different view
To something new, the horizon
And two shades of blue

Whisper a lot to set me free
Mighty river's gonna carry me
Ow I come and as I roll
Mighty river's gonna carry me home

Man on a wire
Higher and higher
Keep seeing shadows in the distance
Stranger town before me

Whisper a lot to set me free
Mighty river's gonna carry me
Ow I come and as I roll
Mighty river's gonna carry me home
Whisper a lot to set me free
Mighty river's gonna carry me
Ow I come and as I roll
Mighty river's gonna carry me home
